Fleetwood Mac's iconic tune "Landslide" has reached a new milestone. The track, written by Stevie Nicks, has just joined Spotify Billions Club.

"Thank you for 1 BILLION streams of 'Landslide' on Spotify," the band wrote on Instagram.

"Landslide," which appeared on Fleetwood Mac's 1975 self-titled album, is now the fifth Fleetwood Mac song to join the Spotify Billions Club. The others include "Dreams," which has over 2 billion streams, "The Chain," "Go Your Own Way" and "Everywhere."

The new milestone comes just weeks after the original recording of the song debuted on the Billboard Hot 100  at #41. The renewed interest in the song is a result of its appearance in the series finale of Netflix's Stranger Things.

Although the original was never released as a single, "Landslide" has gone on to become an iconic track for the band and has been recorded by a whole host of artists, including The Chicks, whose cover peaked at #7 on the Hot 100. It's also been covered by Smashing Pumpkins, the cast of Glee and others.
